•16, 32, or 48 default licensed ports and an 8-porton-demandlicense.

•8-,4-,2-,1-Gbpsfull line rates.

•128 buffers available as a shared pool to each port group: 32 buffers per Fibre Channel (FC) port. A maximum of 125 buffers per port in a port group.

•Fair bandwidth arbiters.

•Device Manager Quick Config Wizard for the Cisco MDS 9148 Switch.

•Redundant power supplies and fans.

•Enterprise class features such as In-ServiceSoftware Upgrades (ISSU), Virtual SANs (VSANs), security features, and quality of service (QoS).

•Consistency with NX-OS.

The front of the Cisco MDS 9148 Switch contains the LEDs, the console and management ports, and 48 8-GbpsFibre Channel Ports. SeeFigure 1.

6 Setting Up a Network

To set up a network, follow these steps:

Step 1 Ensure that the Mgmt0 port is connected to the management network.

Step 2 Ensure that the console port is connected to the PC serial port (or to a terminal server), as shown inFigure 7. For example, on a Windows PC used as a terminal emulator, you can use HyperTerminal. The default baud rate on the console port is 9600.

Step 3 Use the switch setup utility that appears on the console connection.

Step 4 Use the switch setup utility to do the following:a. Set the admin password for the switch.

Caution Make sure that you configure a strong password. Short,easy-to-decipherpasswords are not allowed by CiscoNX-OSsoftware. Strong passwords are at least eight characters long and contain numbers, uppercase letters, and lowercase letters.

b. Assign an IP address and a netmask to the switch, as shown inExample 1.

Example 1 IP Address Step in the Setup Utility

Continue with Out-of-band(mgmt0) management configuration? {yes/no]:yes

Mgmt0 IPV4 address: 209.165.200.225

Mgmt0 IPV4 netmask: 255.255.255.224

c. Set up the default gateway.

Note The switch is now ready to be managed via the Mgmt port using Telnet or Device Manager or Fabric Manager.

7 Connecting Devices

To connect devices, follow these steps:

Step 1 Connect a server to the switch (seeFigure 8).

Step 2 Connect a storage device to the switch (seeFigure 8).
